Anything can be made to fit, pretty sure there will be examples around. If they can fit a v12 into an e30, the v8 into an e36 will be child's play.

And if you are battling to get it to fit, just get Gus with his hammer and talk wrench ^_^

Agreed, it should be "340i" But yes, it will fit. I have seen one, you need some serious sump mods, and I think exhaust headers needed to be made along with engine and tranny mounts. Plenty of room in the engine bay, and the tranny tunnel plenty large enough. No harder than fitting a Lexus, which seems to be in vogue for some strange reason (oh yes, they are cheap!)
